Uh... I think I have a faulty love, or found a nasty glitch.

I have narrowed it down that:
Code: Select all
resp=love.thread.newThread(love.filesystem.read("responder.lua"))
causes:
Code: Select all
$ love irc_bot
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'love::Exception'
what(): Could not open file 404. Does not exist.
Aborted
I can assure you that responder.lua exists:
Code: Select all
$ ls irc_bot
conf.lua main.lua responder.lua
And yes, I have tried
Code: Select all
resp=love.thread.newThread(love.filesystem.read("irc_bot/responder.lua"))
It just gives file not found errors.
Can anyone help?

Try this instead
Code: Select all
resp = love.thread.newThread("responder", "irc_bot/responder.lua")

Oh. *wallface*
Love should really give a better error for that.

It tried to make a thread of a file with the filename you set to be the contents of the actual fault.
It's not LÖVE's fault you didn't read the
love.thread.newThread docs. A "file not found" message is good enough.

I just love the way it said 404.
